Friends?? What are friends? From my opinion, I think a friend is someone that are willing to share your happiness and sadness together, share everything together and comforting each other. People said that it is better if we have a million of friends rather than having an enemy. I totally agree with that. Why? Because, if we have many enemy, we will never live in peace as there is always someone that will interrupt your life.
Friends also can be someone that may calm and entertain you when you are facing in trouble. You are lucky when you have friends that understand you well. So, please appreciate your friends.A truly friendship can be last long until the end of life. We may gain many experiences that with our best friend such as happiness, sadness, and so on.
There are a few tips that I want to share with you on how a friendship may keep last long. Firstly, be a good friend. Once you've started spending time with your friends, remember to take their heart, for example, initiating some of the activities, remembering their birthdays, asking their feeling or else the friendship will become unbalanced and an uneasiness or distance is likely to arise.
Next, be reliable. If you and your friend agree to meet somewhere, don't be late, and do not stand them up. If you're not going to make it on time or make it at all, call them as soon as you realize it. Apologize and ask to reschedule. Don't make them wait for you unexpectedly; it's rude, and it is certainly not a good way to launch a potential friendship. When you say you'll do something, do it. Be someone that people know that they can count on.
Other than that, is a good listener. Many people think that in order to be seen as "friend material" they have to appear very interesting. However, the most important thing is the ability to show that you're interested in others. Listen carefully to what people say, remember important details about them (their names, their likes and dislikes), ask questions about their interests, and just take the time to learn more about them. You don't want to be the guy or girl that always has a better story than anyone else or that changes the subject abruptly instead of continuing the flow of conversation.
Lastly, the most important tip in friendship is being trustworthy. One of the best things about having a friend is that you have someone to whom you can talk about anything, even secrets that you hide from the rest of the world. The key to being a good friend is the ability to keep secrets, so it's no secret that you shouldn't tell other people things that were told to you in confidence. Before people even feel comfortable opening up to you, however, you need to build trust. Be honest about yourself and your beliefs, and don't gossip about others or spread rumors or they will think you like stories better than friends.
